Official Selection:
The king of the French mystery, uber-prolific Georges Simenon gave us Inspector Maigret, delightful well-adjusted family man, and his 75 mysteries. These slim mysteries are consistently good, and this, the first book to introduce Simenon, is a landmark of the crime fiction genre.
Official Selection:
Like Maigret, Inspector Montalbano is as likeable as they come. The long-awaited final book in this long-running series set in Sicily will be published this fall (28 installments total) after the loss of Camilleri several years ago. Food, wine, Italian sunshine and a great supporting cast add to the strength of this series.
